Hakumokuren of "I Children's Amusement Park" (Tsukishima 3) blooms.
Before the glamorous Yoshino cherry tree blooms, it is exposed to soft sunlight, and pure white flowers are full of branches, creating a seasonal feeling in early spring.
Hakumokuren is a deciduous Takagi of the genus Mokuren native to China. It has been introduced to Japan for a long time, has spread as a garden tree, and has been produced various horticultural varieties and hybrids.
Also known as "Mokuren", "Mokuren" originally refers to "Shi (purple) Mokuren" that blooms red-purple flowers.
Winter buds are covered with silver cilia, and buds are also known as Compassworthy because the southern side where the sun shines swells and the tip faces north.
In early spring, prior to the leaves, it blooms large, egg-shaped, thick, upward, closed and closed flowers.
The 3 calyx and 6 petals are the same color and look like 9 petals in total.
Although the flowering season is short, the flower appearance with white flowers on the branches and many small birds appearing to be stuck on the branches is unique and worth seeing.
Wind carries an elegant scent and softens your mind.
